Having tires that function properly is a key ingredient to safe driving. Tires that are properly inflated to your vehicle's recommended air pressure levels and having tread that isn't worn down are important for maintaining traction on the roadways, especially during rainy and icy weather. Our chief service technician at Lithia Hyundai of Anchorage offers customers some easy ways to check tire pressure and tread.
Your vehicle has a recommended tire air pressure level that can be found in your owner's manual or listed on the car's doorjamb. Tires should be checked for air pressure at least monthly. A simple penny can let you know if your tire treads are dangerously low. Insert the penny head side down into the tread, and if you can see Lincoln's full head, your tires have become too worn down to travel safely.
